Three old geeps climb the grade from Gantt's Quarry back to Sylacauga. There they'll head to Talladega, where they will move over to SCL rails for the trip back to Boyles Yard in Birmingham. In earlier years, they would have stayed on L&N rails to make a big loop up through Anniston, Gadsden, Attalla and Oneonta before approaching Boyles from the northeast.
